It is a visual and audio medium so I think there is room for movies that are more about a mood. I will say I think I find the characters much more interesting in Casino seeing it recently (especially Ginger: who I probably wrote off the most the first time around). Sharon stone does do a good job of playing someone that bad while also getting us to believe De Niro would keep taking her back the way she did. I do like Casino but I can also see its problems ( from that era I would rate both Donnie Brasco and Carlito’s way higher)</p></blockquote><p></p>
